2005 Artezin with Pork Tenderloin and Bourbon Soaked Apples

This wine was just OK for me. I recall liking the 2004 quite a bit more. Upfront, it's quite fruity and (almost artificially) sweet… mainly super ripe cherry, followed by some nutty-mocha and pepper flavors. It's not bad, but for the $20+, I think it's a bit overpriced.
I paired it with a nice pork tenderloin, with polenta, peas, and some lovely green apples soaked in bourbon and sautéed.
The meal totally trumped the wine.
